Suggestion of username undesirable

Unread post by jdda3 » 2018-03-20, 16:02

Dear forum members,

I would like Pale Moon to not suggest usernames on a website for which it does not remember passwords (it has been added to Exceptions under Security>Passwords). The browser has also been instructed to "forget" the website in question and the relevant history has been deleted, but the username does not seem to disappear. Do you know whether this is possible? Thank you very much in advance.

Best regards.

You probably want to switch off search and form history in privacy settings.

Preferences -> Privacy -> Select "Use custom settings for history" in the drop-down -> uncheck "Remember search and form history"

Thank you very much, Moonchild! It worked. It had not occurred to me to use the drop-down, for some reason. My problem has been solved.
